Canberra, Jul 14: Australian prime minister Julia Gillard has condemned what she called “deadly terrorist attacks” overnight in Mumbai.

“Our thoughts are with the Indian people and in particular with the families who have lost loved ones and who are grieving today.

“Our thoughts are also with the many injured. Mumbai is a brave city that has already known great sorrow at the hands of terrorists, including in the 2008 attacks in which two Australians lost their lives”, said Gillard.

“Australia stands with Mumbai and the people of India today. We know their strength and are confident they will meet this latest challenge with courage and determination to stand against such senseless acts of violence”, the Australian PM said
